What developed from the accident in the night.

Chapter Five

"Long time no see, Ed." said the voice behind him and Envy turned to look at him.

There was a tall man standing behind him. 'Probably taller than me.' Envy thought frowning. 'Though, I can't tell for sure since I'm sitting.' The man had short, dark hair - maybe black, but Envy couldn't tell because of the dim lights. He was dressed neatly. A marine blue button-up shirt and tight black jeans. After noticing the Rolex on his right wrist Envy looked at his clothes again. They also seemed quite expensive.

"Hello shrimp!" said the blond man beside him and Envy turned his gaze towards him, away from the other man's annoying smirk. The blond was rolling an un-lit cigarette on his lips. He was also wearing a button-up shirt but his had red and white stripes. His jeans were dark brown and looked worn-out.

Envy turned to Edward and saw him glaring at the other blond. "Do not call me that!" Edward hissed.

"You're still angry at me, too?" the blond asked trying to look innocent and continued. "I've done nothing to you."

"Don't play with me!" Edward snarled. "You're the one who made the bet with him!" he continued and pointed at the dark-haired man and hissing when mentioning him.

"It would be nice to introduce yourself since you interrupted our conversation…" Envy suddenly said preventing Edward from continuing to hiss.

"Normally you introduce yourself before asking someone's name…But…" the dark haired man said. " Name's Mustang… Roy Mustang."

"Like James Bond?" Envy muttered sarcastically but quiet enough that the others didn't hear him. He laughed out loud and gained questioning looks from the others.

"And you are?" Mustang asked. Envy took a moment wondering should he tell or not.

"Envy." He finally said and took a sip from his drink which he had almost forgotten on the table.

"No last name…" Mustang blurted out.

"Not for you to know…" Envy said and got a glare from the dark haired man.

"No need to be so gloom…" Mustang's blond friend said. " Hey! I'm Jean Havoc." he said and offered his hand. Envy shook it and eyed the two. Then he looked at Edward who still seemed to be looking a way out.

"Can I get another?" Envy asked Edward lifting his glass. The blond nodded and started to make one. After a minute or two the drink was done and Edward gave it to Envy. But before he had a change to move away Envy took a hold of his hand and leaned closer. "You alright?" he whispered.

"Eh…" Edward mumbled. "I…I'm fine…"

"You sure?" Envy asked again. Edward gave him a small smile. "Okay…" Envy didn't believe him but let it slide. For now.

"So… How do you two know the chibi-san?" Envy asked turning away from Edward. He noticed Mustang looking at him and Havoc had disappeared. He saw the blond dancing a little further away.

"That none of your business…" Mustang snarled at him.

"What did I do to you?" Envy asked. He was starting to get annoyed at his behaviour. Usually people didn't dare to argue with him or treat him like this.

Since Mustang didn't obviously want to talk to him, Envy didn't try to start a conversation. After all he didn't want to talk to the man either. He decided to concentrate on his drink. Edward had disappeared somewhere. Probably the backroom.

Mustang was looking for Edward too. When he didn't see him Mustang frowned. He even asked Charles where the blond might have gone but the bartender didn't have time to answer since someone had come to ask Mustang to dance. Still frowning he agreed and disappeared to the dancing crowd with her.

"If you were wondering Edward went to keep his break." Charles informed him.

"Thought so…" Envy shrugged but didn't move from his seat. 'I probably need to postpone my plan…' he thought. 'It seems that I am more sympathetic than I thought.'

For some reason, unknown to Envy, he didn't want to hurt Edward. 'This isn't like me…' he frowned at himself. 'What's happened to me?' he wondered. He was getting upset at himself and was thinking of leaving for the night.

But then he noticed someone coming to his direction. 'Isn't that…What's his name again…Mustang's friend…Jean?' Envy remembered. 'Maybe I can get some answers from him…' he thought. Jean sat next to him and ordered a drink.

"I already asked your friend but he didn't want answer…But perhaps you'll answer me…" Envy started. 'Better take it slowly and not ask straight away…' he thought.

"Yeah?" Jean asked reaching out for his drink Charles was offering to him.

"I was just wondering… How do you two know chibi-san?"

Jean coughed and looked at him. Then he laughed. "That doesn't surprise me…He doesn't like to talk about it much…"

"Talk about what?" Envy asked.

"We used to go to the same school…" Jean started to tell.

"You went to the same school? Why wouldn't he want to talk about it?" Envy didn't understand.

"You see…" Jean started but stopped. He looked like he was considering should he say it or not. "You see…Those two. Meaning Roy and the shrimp. They used to date."

"What?" Envy almost yelled. But he didn't raise his voice. Besides who would have noticed. The music was so loud that they already had to speak quite loud to be heard.

"Yeah…" Jean sighed. He was looking at the table and rolling his empty glass. "I know I should take any sides…Although I wouldn't know which side to take…" he muttered. "They were both hurt after it…"

"What do you mean?" Envy asked.

"You see…Roy doesn't easily give up on thing he believes belong to him…And after Edward left him he didn't know what to do with himself…" Jean seemed to be talking to himself more than to Envy.

"Edward dumped him?" Envy smirked. 'Go chibi-san!' he thought.

"Yeah…Even I have to admit that Roy deserved it." Jean said. "Can I have another?" he asked the bartender.

"Edward had a good reason to leave him…After all Roy did go too far…" he continued.

"Chibi-san mentioned a bet. What was it about?" Envy wanted to know.

"That I can't tell you." Jean said and continued before Envy got to complain. "Edward will tell you himself if he wants to…All I can say is that the bet is the reason why he left Roy…"

Envy was about to argue but then he thought he had heard something. "Did you hear something?" he asked Jean. He shook his he and said no. 'Am I going paranoid or did sound like Edward?" Envy thought. He hadn't heard wrong when they heard someone, most likely Edward, shouting in the backroom.

"Stay away from me! Don't touch me!" came the very angry voice from the backroom. Envy thought he heard fear in the voice too. Within seconds Envy was rushing towards the backroom.

When Roy had walk to the bar Edward's first thought was 'Why is he here?' He had tried to find away to escape but of course they had to talk to him. Soon he had a change to retreat to the backroom saying that he'd take a break. He was wondering if he could just leave and avoid facing Roy again.

"But I can't do that…I left early just yesterday…" he said out loud and sat down on the sofa. Edward leaned against the wall and sighed. Somehow he felt it was going to be a very long and stressful night.

He didn't know how much time had passed since he had closed his eyes for a minute and dozed off. But he woke up when he heard the door close. Edward opened his eyes and jumped to his feet. "What are you doing here?" he asked panicking. "Costumers aren't allowed to come here."

"But I'm not only a costumer. Am I?" Roy asked walking closer to the blond. Edward instinctively tried to back away but he was already against the wall. He was getting more afraid of the man when he noticed he smelled quite much of alcohol. Even his voice gave away that Roy had been drinking. 'He probably started at home…' Edward thought.

"I know you've missed me too." Roy said coming closer and reaching out to brush Edward's blond locks behind his ear. Edward shivered under his touch and Roy mistook it as pleasure. "See. You missed me."

"Don't touch me." Edward said after regaining his voice. Mostly to his own surprise his voice didn't tremble. 'Don't be afraid of him. Don't be afraid of him.' went on over and over again in his mind. With it he felt braver and glared the man standing in front of him. "Don't touch me!" Edward hissed.

"Now. Don't be like that. Admit that you like it." Roy whispered to him leaning forward planning to kiss the blond. Edward took a fast side step and managed to avoid his lips.

"I told not to touch me!" Edward said raising his voice. He could only hope that someone would hear him and come to help. Roy obviously had had too much to drink and wasn't acting like his normal, calm self.

Roy seemed to have lost his self-control. He crabbed Edward's wrists and pushed him against the lockers. Edward winced when his back hit the locker door. Roy forced their lips together. Edward tried to struggle. But being pinned against the hard surface he felt that he couldn't do anything.

Then Edward realized something vital to help him. 'How could I forget?' he questioned from himself. Edward raised his left foot and stamped down on Roy's foot. But not using too much strength. After all with the automail you could brake bones. Roy gasped and broke away from the forceful kiss. This gave Edward an opportunity to get away from his reach.

"Stay away from me! Don't touch me!" Edward yelled at him now that he had the change. Roy groaned and started to move closer again. Though he didn't get too far until Envy rushed through the door. He immediately pulled Edward to his side and glared at Roy. Jean came in after him and thanked god that looks couldn't kill.

"What do you think you're doing?" Envy growled. Edward looked at him when he was waiting an answer from Roy. 'Why is he so serious about this? It's not like we're dating…" Edward thought. When Roy didn't answer Envy growled again. "Keep your hand to yourself." he said and dragged Edward out of the backroom. Jean was left behind to look after his friend.

"I can walk on my own." Edward said to Envy and pulled his arm away from him. But Envy snatched Edward's arm back. He lead Edward towards the backdoor. "Where are you taking me?" Edward asked getting annoyed at Envy.

"I think you'd better go home." Envy answered. Edward started to struggle since he still had work to do. He couldn't just leave. He was going to say it to Envy but the green haired man turned towards him. Envy's purple eyes gazed at him seriously. "I don't think it's a good idea for you to continue working when you're crying."

"I'm not crying!" Edward argued. Envy brushed his thump over Edwards cheek and moved it so that Edward could see. 'When did I start crying?' Edward questioned himself.

"Do you agree with me?" Envy asked looking behind the blond. Edward turned around to see Izumi nodding behind him. That was all Envy needed and he started to drag the blond again. "Is your car still here from last night?" he suddenly asked.

"Yeah …" Edward said. He was still confused about Envy's behaviour.

"Where is it?"

Edward led Envy to his car. He was planning to drive but Envy pushed him to the other side of the car and sat down on the driver's seat. Edward didn't protest. He was too tired for that. It didn't take long to drive to Edward's house. After all Envy was driving. When they stopped they both got out of the car. Envy followed him to the front door and Edward was grateful for it. Alphonse was probably already in bed and he could like to have some company.

Edward sat down on the sofa and Envy sat down next to him. He reached out and pulled the blond leaning against him. He waited for a while if Edward wanted to pull away but when the blond didn't move he wrapped his arms around him. "Could you tell what happened?" he whispered.

"What?" Edward asked. He was almost sleeping already.

"What happened between you and Mustang? And I don't mean tonight." Envy whispered near his ear.

"Oh…" Edward mumbled. "Fine. But let me sleep first…I'll tell you in the morning."

Envy nodded but Edward didn't see it. He was really tired and when he closed his eyes he fell asleep within seconds. Envy held him closer and dozed off himself satisfied that he'd finally find out what had happened between Edward and Roy.

End of Chapter Five

Disclaimer I do not own the Fullmetal Alchemist

I don't think I wrote this chapter too well. I could have done better but didn't have the time to think.

I don't know when I get to a computer again. So… The next chapter might take quite a long time. And I apologize for it but can't do nothing about it.

Thank you for your reviews.
